LiveBindings in Delphi VCL and FireMonkey Departing from the traditional data-aware model, Delphi XE2 introduces a new sophisticated data-binding technology you can use for building database related applications, but also for connecting objects properties.

Android Development with Oxygene for JavaUse your Delphi skills to build native Android applications using RemObjects' new Oxygene for Java. Using the same language and compiler as Oxygene for .NET, which powers Embarcadero Prism XE2, Oxygene for Java is the quickest way Delphi developers can start building Android applications today.

Get Ready to AppWave Your Apps! This presentation introduces you to AppWave, its components, features and benefits, and how you, as a Developer or ISV, can get involved and ready your applications for use in AppWave!

Building JavaScript Web Applications with Delphi REST Servers Delphi can be used for web development by building a REST server (based on DataSnap) and a rich JavaScript client. A modern way for building flexible web applications.

Creating Pure REST Servers Using DataSnap This presentation shows you how to create pure REST Web services with Delphi without the dependencies normally introduced by DataSnap. Why you might want to do this is discussed, and examples of both JavaScript and Delphi clients for these services are demonstrated.

ClientDataSets Part 3: Searching and Filtering ClientDataSets In this continuation of his ClientDataSet series, ClientDataSet expert Cary Jensen demonstrates techniques for searching and filtering the data stored in a ClientDataSet.

FireMonkey FireStarter From layouts, animations and styles to 3D for desktop, mobile and tablets, this session covers the fundamentals of FireMonkey to guide you to making Rich HD applications faster than ever before.

Using jQuery Mobile with Intraweb We will take the application we built in the prior session and mobilize it - so that it plays nicely with mobile devices that run iOS, Android, and others. We'll do this by making use of the jQuery Mobile framework to theme our application and the templating system built into Intraweb.

Creating Custom FireMonkey Controls RAD Studio XE2 includes the brand new FireMonkey user interface framework. Like the VCL, FireMonkey is component-based, but unlike the VCL, FireMonkey is designed to be cross-platform. This session provides you with what you need to get started building custom FireMonkey controls. Specific topics include presentation mechanisms, user interactions, designer functionality, and deployment.

Skinning VCL Applications with VCL Styles RAD Studio XE2 offers support for skinning-the ability to dynamically change the appearance of UI elements without coding changes. This session provides a detailed look at how a developer can leverage skinning in their apps, and how to identify potential issues. In addition, this session pays particular attention to adding skinning support to custom VCL controls.

VENDOR SHOWCASE: FireMonkey and VCL United with Hydra RemObjects Hydra allows you to mix FireMonkey and VCL elements as well as integrate .NET parts. This session shows you how to extend your existing VCL and .NET applications with modernized, FireMonkey based UI elements.

Prism Unleashed The Oxygene language from Prism was developed for managed environments and developer productivity. This session shows you some of the more 'hidden' language features like Class Contracts, Interface delegation, and Inline Interfaces that really boost your development performance.

RadPHP XE2 JQueryMobile Application Development This session shows how to create a new Mobile Application and display data from a database on a JQueryMobile Mlist component. Then we deploy and upload the application onto an Android device or an iOS device (like iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch).

Multi-platform Development with FireMonkey In this session, we give an introduction to FireMonkey. Learn the differences between FireMonkey and VCL, as well as what's the same. See examples of both HD and 3D applications. Also learn how to work with FireMonkey Styles, and how to interact with components.

Delphi Tips and Tricks with Marco Cantù and Cary Jensen In this fun and entertaining presentation, Delphi experts Marco Cantù and Cary Jensen repeat a segment from their popular Tips and Tricks presentation from their Delphi Developer Days 2011 tour. In this session, Marco and Cary will share with you several Delphi tips that you can add to your development repertoire.

Delphi, Dependency Injection, and the Delphi Spring Framework This talk covers the basics of Inversion of Control, Dependency Injection, and how to use the Delphi Spring Container. It's code-centric and clearly shows how Dependency Injection can practically force you to write clean, testable code.

Unit Testing with Delphi This session discusses the "why's" and "how's" of unit testing using Delphi and DUnit. Learn why you should write unit tests, what units do for you, how you should go about writing your tests, and various techniques for writing good tests in Delphi.

Advanced XML with Prism XE2 This session covers advanced usages of XML with Embarcadero Prism XE2. The session consists of a series of scenarios with code examples of solving specific tasks and makes use of the .NET Framework. Also included are some Delphi examples of interoperability.

Technical Session #456:00am - 6:45am PDT

Multi-threading Made Simple While Delphi allows you to utilize the full power of modern computers, many programs still run only at a fraction of the CPU capacity because programmers are scared of writing the multi-threaded code. The open source library OmniThreadLibrary will help you overcome that hurdle by providing high-level language construct as as parallel 'for' statement.

VENDOR SHOWCASE: Exploring the New Gnostice PDFtoolkit 4 for Delphi Win 32/64 In this session, we take a tour of the new Gnostice PDFtoolkit 4 with its many new features and the new interactive PDF Viewer.
